Hello,

I was banned in the irc chat using the handle "anonhakim" and my ip has been banned for no apparent reason. I haven't said anything inflammatory. Was it for being idol? I have been on a lot today while doing other things on my computer while working but have checked back every half hour or so to see what is being discussed.

Anyway i was banned, how do I get unbanned. I have been going to OWS, attending the GA... I shouldn't have been banned. fix it

Hey anon,

If you were banned wrongly, don't worry about it too much for the moment. The IRC chat moderators do appear to be a little kick and ban-happy and who knows what it might be about.

Perhaps another unofficial OWS IRC channel should be set up by a different core technical group of OWS.

there has been a lot of complaints about the moderators in the chat room, they do not cross in to the forums, I think the moderators started that chat room not the admin of this site, they just got it tied in to the site...

browse the forums for a while you will see a totally different attitude.
